They are mostly standardized, but the UX still sucks. Tesla takes care of all the billing on their backend, based on vehicle VIN transmitted through the cable. All the other vendors have to collect a credit card or identify the user somehow, which is not as simple as it could be.
Chargers have the same quality and reliability as a free public WiFi. Often broken, slow, difficult to activate, and nobody cares.

The market is fragmented. Chargers are run by different companies. Very often you can't even use them, because they don't accept card payments, and expect you to have a membership, or at best use their custom shitty app.
Hedge funds and other investors have rules in place to limit what they can invest in which would probably rule out a purchase of Reddit.

Secondly, the Reddit crowd would move else where.

Thirdly, working in investments myself, hedge fund types dont even think like this. It is hard to explain how far off the mark you are...I know financial services can look like a black box....but what is happening is much more boring than you might think. All the drama is happening on Reddit...the SEC is worried about retail investors creating a bubble and losing money....hedge funds and traders just want to make money.....they may take a loss here and move on quickly to the next thing. Doing crazy sheeeeet like you suggested would have them potentially lose all of their investors money or be blacklisted....
Nibble – Listen to bite sized audio
My albums have survived disk crashes.

I try to keep it very simple.
I use cron to rsync --backup to another computer and a NAS.

I do not use Raid. I want to be able to take any disk and mount it on any computer, possible using a USB adaptor.

There is no need for instant synchronization. When I upload pictures to the photo album, I wait a couple of days before deleting them from the camera.

I set up a screensaver on a desktop to display random pictures from the NAS backup.
We like to see the pictures that way but it also have the advantage that we notice when the NAS is not working and I do check that I see a recent picture once in a while.

I now make certain that I use photo album software that organize pictures using directories and filenames. I once had a crash and recovered the actual photos but not the database with tags, names etc. So I had to name all pictures again.

> it doesn’t bend when drying

Not just while the wood is drying, wood 'movement' is something woodworkers have to take into consideration in almost every project. Everyone lives in an environment with humidity (some more than others) and when seasons change solid wood will expand and contract. Plywood is very stable with respect to humidity.
After a decade-long respite from three flaky Kinesis Advantage keyboards (they must have modernized by now) and a several year foray into the Dvorak layout, I went way down the mechanical keyboard rabbit hole last year.

After some beginner choices (Obinslab Anne 2 Pro), I quickly rejected any keyboard that didn't support QMK firmware. My configuration has two sets of nine "tap/hold" keys (UIO JKL M,. and their mirrors) for modifier keys and custom layers. My hands hardly move, which for my particular physical health seems more important than their position on my desk, and more important than the QWERTY - Dvorak question.

My favorite mechanical keyboards had been the GergoPlex, ErgoDox EZ, Planck EZ, and a KBDFans DZ60. Then I purchased a Leopold FC660C and Hasu's replacement QMK controller.

I like Topre switches so much more than any mechanical switch I've tried, that I can't bring myself to use any other keyboard. Topre switches are the obsession killer. You can't swap them, you can't post pictures on Reddit of your gaudy new keycaps, all you can do is customize your QMK configuration.

It's a bit like the shaving rabbit hole. What sticks, if one returns to expensive Gillette cartridges, is the brush and Mitchell's Wool Fat Shaving Soap. No one returns to spray cans.
This metric is income-only. Which is why it's so small - extended unemployment benefits (with the bonuses) have keep a lot of people above this line.

In reality, there are a lot more people than this who are just on the edge of scraping by. Some of their own volition (some people on the edge make $200k+ and it's because of a series of poor decisions), but even more people because the poverty line doesn't even pay for their studio apartment (I see you, California!), much less food or anything else.

Star Trek TOS is pretty different, yes. Like I said, Roddenberry changed personally a lot between TOS and TNG. The show was most explicitly communist when he was in charge, so, TNG and shows very similar to it like Voyager. DS9 did develop more plausible story lines in which the Federation was presented differently and they deserve credit for that, but they had to violate some of Roddenberry's rules and vision for the show in order to do so. Their escape clause was that DS9 heavily featured non-Federation races.

TNG was definitely the peak of this. The crew of the Enterprise in that show don't turn on each other, make mistakes or do dumb stuff. This was an explicit rule by Roddenberry: in his utopia Federation officials never fought each other. The writers called it "Roddenberry's Box" because it was such a limiting rule, and the Box is why so many episodes feature mind-controlling aliens of various kinds.

Any post-scarcity society will look like communism/anarchism unless it is intentionally keeping part of its population poor for no good reason

I don't think this is true, see my other comments on this thread. Trek-style post scarcity where material things are non-scarce still doesn't cover anything non-replicable like people's time and attention, and by implication, service industries.

Until there is sci-fi that explains how a society eliminates scarcity of non-physical things like status, power and attention, the future will remain capitalist by default.
> But I don't see how minimum wage could be inflationary, but if it were it certainly wouldn't be enough to "wipe out savings" - that requires hyperinflation.

Inflation is a boogeyman. I heard a friend of mine not wanting any sort of covid stimulus checks because it would make his and his family's savings depreciate.
To be fair, sometimes things happen, and it can be good (I think JP said something like that). something like "never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake" - if people demonstrate their shittiness, help them.

It would just be your friend that got an (admittedly mandatory) wake-up call - other employees would too. The best remedy is just a totally neutral post/tweet detailing what happened, with no judgement at all - 3rd parties will get angry on your behalf, and a lack of initial anger will only motivate that moreso.
there are standards for the plugs and adapters so you can charge any given brand of car at most brands of chargers.
> Make no mistake, the market is already a mockery, what's happening now is that the public is finding out.

Pretty sure that was about a century ago and resulted in the Great Depression.

I don't think the solution to the crock that has been going on is to "do it back". Setting one or two hedge funds back a year or so, or even to close completely, isn't going to do anything resembling justice.

It starts to look more and more like just more pigs rolling around in the mud together, if you ask me (saying nothing of the collateral damage along the way).
Yes, unless you're using the newest and rarest non-superchargers, you're looking at 8-14kW vs 50-150kW. Also there are 3 or more different ones (so one app isn't enough) and because they take so long to charge people often park for extended (e.g. 4+ hours) periods. They border on useless, unless they happen to be where you work or live, if what you're looking for is a quick fill-up.
I have an honest job AND a position on GME. Thanks for your concern though.
I was disapointed in some of his videos about Coronavirus and Cuomo's executive orders. But then I remembered that he is neither a stock trader nor an epidemiologist. His channel is fundamentally an opinion show. Its a good opinion show, but still an opinion show. When he starts giving opinions on things far outside his wheelhouse he becomes a more-rational-than-average lay person.

Yes, but retail is going to get destroyed in the end.

"Reduce the number of people in poverty by 50%" is a different goal than "Reduce the net poverty gap by 50%". A real headline can be that fewer people are in poverty than last year but the dollar sum of poverty is higher.

Effective policy considers the true goal - people are living better - and takes into account Goodhart's law as possible. I would say OP is arguing that the latter goal metric is better for humans than the former, and I agree.
Perhaps Citron sold their position but others are shorting the stock since it's somewhat unlikely that a 20x increase in value is sustainable.
> These points doubtless make me appear to be a complacent shill for the financial industry, talking down to the rubes

For context, in 2008 John Authers was a (very senior) Financial Times reporter on Wall Street. He became aware that there were queues of financial workers outside retail branches of banks in South Manhattan. These people had cash in various US banks, more than the insured deposit limit, and were withdrawing it and/or shifting it between accounts to protect themselves against the bankruptcy of major banks. They has a better idea than the newspaper-reading public of what was about to go down.

John decided that this wasn't worthy of being covered in the FT. He did however queue up himself to move his own money so it was protected.

You can judge for yourself whether that makes him likely to be a complacent shill for the financial industry, talking down to the rubes.
Hi, I'm the author of this story. Mozilla declined to make anyone available for an interview and would only provide canned responses to questions via email (included in the story).
Stock prices typically rise after layoffs because the perception is that the company is cutting underperformers that don't have the same marginal contribution as the remaining staff.

Generally, a declining stock price could have implications for debt covenants, compensation packages, and, requires selling more stock to finance the same level of capital expenditure.
It's twofold. One, they want some way to notify you back when your charge session is nearing completion, or if you get unplugged unexpectedly. Two, they want the data on your usage individually identified, so they can sell/mine it.
They are standardized, as far as the high power electronics go.

But imagine having to install the "Chevron" app to pay to fuel up at Chevron, no big billboards with the price visible from the street (and prices wildly varying from free to $6/gal), some gas stations billing by minute instead of by gallons, half of the stations hidden in a dense parking lot/structure or "for retail customers only" and 1/10 pumps in the US being out of order.
Then if and when you finally get through all that, you are likely charging at a much slower speed than a Supercharger.

Using a Supercharger is even easier and more seamless than refueling with gas. Other EV chargers are generally much worse than gas. I hope they get there eventually, but right now it is a night and day difference in my experience.

Front Running is illegal, and companies get busted and fined for doing that.

High Frequency trading is actually GOOD for retail investors because it reduces spreads and increases liquidity.
Seriously those guys claim they are holding companies accountable and the market efficient. They are just sleazy stock traders. Grinds my gears people try and defend them through efficient capital markets when you see the garbage reports they put out there to manipulate the market for their positions.
The most traditional version of the stock market is that a company issued shares in order to gain cash for investment, with shareholders essentially fronting the risk for a portion of the pie. If it things went well, there would be dividends, then you addition of trading shares to someone other than the originating company.

Can't say much on derivatives and others, at least futures made sense as way of fronting money for agriculture :/

Great in-depth analysis!

It really seems AMD's problem right now is fab capacity - as they can't sell their existing inventory fast enough. The new gen GPUs are double-whammied by the resurgence in cryptomining but it's telling that even the 5000-series CPUs still seem to be selling out (even the lowest tier 5600X).

From AMD's earnings report (released yesterday), their margins are healthy and enterprise segment more than 2X in revenue on QoQ basis. Certainly indicates that Milan is their top priority given the high profit margins.
https://www.anandtech.com/show/16455/amd-reports-q4fy-2020-e...

Will fab capacity really be better in 2022? Can't be worse than this year but with Apple buying up all the next-gen 3nm capacity, Intel also sourcing to TSMC, it just seems a persistent issue until more fabs come online (which takes years).
For my apartment, highest polluters include: dishwasher heating cycle, cooking, neighbor cigarette smoke, and air leaking in from main door. Adding weather stripping on the main door has substantially reduced the ambient pollution levels of my unit.
I'm a man of the left, which is partly why I find these issues so shameful.

So you'll need to clarify how I'm "in the wrong lane".
It shouldn't unless those funds are invested in hedge funds (some are, but usually only a few percent of their total assets). Day-to-day volatility shouldn't affect them that much.
The problem with Delphi is the cost. I've tried it briefly but that was during a trial period and I didn't even get to use it much. Embarcadero's pricing on even the entry level products to use Delphi was way more than I was willing to spend in order to even see if I liked it.
I've been very happy with my Ikea purchases. Some of the materials are cheaper, but usually the overall function is better than products that would cost some multiple of the price. We have the means to buy the more expensive furniture, but I can't find any retailers that offer things that are as well-designed as IKEA, and IKEA seems to concern itself with the environment (although it's frustratingly easy for a retailer to mislead about the degree to which they are environmentally friendly, and while I'm sure IKEA exaggerates, my other local retailers are far less convincing). I have been disappointed with IKEA's selection of bookcases, but otherwise I'm pretty happy. Most importantly, my wife and I really enjoy trips to IKEA as one of the few 'outings' we get to do during COVID (we like to browse around show rooms and get ideas for our home and also to try their Swedish-themed foods).

That said, I really do welcome suggestions for other retailers, whether they be retailers that are more environmentally friendly, or better designed, or with a more enjoyable shopping experience.

EDIT: one more grievance--somehow everything is still out of stock for the foreseeable future, and they are very tight-lipped about the specific nature of their supply chain woes and how they're going to work around them. I would expect that a year into the pandemic they'd have addressed some of their supply chain issues or at least managed to be more accurate about their shipping estimates (even if those estimates are still far off into the future).
> For them to win this they need to keep putting more money into the fire which pulls in bigger and bigger fish.

This isn't true. The institutions with Short Exposure are connected to the institutions who buy Robinhood data and perform high frequency trading on those orders. Citadel and Melvin can BUY GME themselves to mitigate the risks. It is likely that a substantial amount of GME is being held by the institutions who had short exposure. It's basic risk mitigation.

The high frequency traders who have the Robinhood data are making money on every Buy GME order and will make money on every sell when this bubble collapses.

It is wrong to present this as a populist uprising.

This is an incredible fluctuation, a hilarious anomaly, but it is nothing more than that. It will have no lasting impact.

I firmly believe that the hedge funds that held GME short positions have bought into GME to mitigate their exposure. They likely bought in algorithmically using robinhood data and are making money off of retail right now.

As I've seen it used, "stonks" connotes that you're suggesting somebody who doesn't really understand anything about the stock market, but thinks that what's good for the stock market must be good for America.

I think it's not meant to suggest a typo, but rather the slurred accent that comes with being overenthusiastic and loud. I'd compare it to using "Murica" instead of "America" to sugges that somebody is being nationalistic -- and I think there's supposed to be a significant (but not perfect) overlap between the two groups.
> The problem is of a lack of data publishing

Agreed. If you have any recommendations for long-term public data archival they would be greatly appreciated. OSF recently instituted a 50 GB cap which rules out publishing many types of raw data, and subscription options (AWS, Dropbox, etc.) will lead to link rot when the uploading author changes jobs or retires, or the project's money runs out. Sure, publishing summary spreadsheets is a good first step, but there should be a public place for video and other large data files. IPFS was previously suggested but the data still needs to be hosted somewhere. Maybe YouTube is the best option, despite transcoding?

One thing that’s different is commission-free trades. Plenty of folks buying and selling 10 shares at a time a dozen times/day “to profit off volatility”.

Doesn’t explain everything, but retail can put through more volume than ever before.

Just checked GME spread though, and it’s about $1.50 or about 0.5%, so the market makers must be happy with that and the volume.
You are missing something - these aren't naked shorts. The fact that more than the whole float is out on loan does not imply that naked shorting is going on.
I don't think what they're doing violates the law[0], but they could easily subpoena Reddit and find out who the users are if they wanted to.

[0]: too complicated to get into here, but basically my interpretation of the law is that you need to be making trades that you intend to cancel or revert immediately in order for it to apply to you, and what these traders are doing is instead speculating on the price going up and hoping to cause the shorts to liquidate their positions, thus further driving the price up. Not spoofing to create fake demand.
Companies are hiring people to do a job. It makes sense to ensure the people you hire can actually make something.
